Albert Pillar of the Community United States 1915 Posts	Posted 03/26/2016 2:09 pm Probably 5 or 10 piasters, or kurus or kurush dated AH1327 about (1909). How about a better focus for a better look at details? And add an accurate measure for diameter. It's worth the extra effort to get better replies because there's potential for some money in it if it isn't too corroded or cruddy. Report this Post to the Staff

Albert Pillar of the Community United States 1915 Posts	Posted 03/26/2016 2:46 pm Sounds good. Your coin has some very small details to identify and to pin it down exactly but they just don't show up well enough right now. Report this Post to the Staff

IndoHound New Member Indonesia 11 Posts	Posted 04/17/2016 5:21 pm Krause lists these coins as fairly common. In the grade you have got it in you can expect to get $5 for it from a world coin trader who has demand for this type of item. Report this Post to the Staff
